[12:42] {Threei} - Senator minority leader McConnell: both presidential candidates agree that something must be done to help restore confidence in the financial market{XLF}
[12:42] {Threei} something?
[12:42] {Threei} like, rain dance?
[12:43] {Threei} I mean, it took them how long to agree that something must be done?
[12:44] {Threei} do you have this feeling, as if you were being led by hand through the forest, blindfolded... and suddenly found out your leader was blind?
[12:45] {hawkfan4} definitely, so sad
[12:46] {GeoArb} i heard a great quote somewhere
[12:46] {GeoArb} the efficacy of a rain dance is all based on timing it right
[12:46] {Threei} lol

[12:59] {GeoArb} what does that men?
[12:59] {GeoArb} mean
[12:59] {GeoArb} are dems negotiating among themselves again?
[13:02] {Threei} and we are happy why exactly?
[13:02] {hawkfan4} Boehner on tv talking about getting the deal done
[13:03] {Threei} then why are unhappy next second?
[13:04] {Threei} sorry... I know I am too curious
[13:04] {GeoArb} nice climb tdc
[13:05] {hawkfan4} sold off when he said that the republicans would not vote for a plan that uses tax money to bail out wall street, or something to that effect. Protecting the american taxpayers stuff
[13:06] {Threei} amazing... market tries to decode every word
[13:11] {Threei} IBKR
[13:11] {hawkfan4} 13:10 IBKR Interactive Brokers trading halted - news pending (20.42 )
[13:11] {Threei} HALTED: NEWS PENDING
[13:12] {Threei} hmmm

[13:12] {GeoArb} noooooooooooooo
[13:12] {GeoArb} my money sniff
[13:12] {hawkfan4} uh oh, i pray for buyout
[13:12] {Threei} really hope it's a buyout
[13:12] {GeoArb} nah i am good
[13:12] {Threei} hat would boost markets greatly
[13:12] {GeoArb} wayyyy beneath sipc
[13:12] {Threei} any kind of problems surfaced there will be real killer
[13:14] {Threei} if it's a good news and it opens up, AMTD and ETFC are likely sympathy plays
[13:23] {cosmo} ETFC hod = 3.47
[13:23] {cosmo} just in case...
[13:24] {hawkfan4} 13:24 IBKR Interactive Brokers announces preliminary financial estimates for the quarter, sees Q3 EPS of $0.55-0.65 vs $0.47 First Call consensus; approves share repurchase program of up to 8 mln shares (14.80 -0.47) -Update-

[13:27] {GeoArb} oh ok
[13:28] {hawkfan4} TTN ususally gets things out faster than briefing though. Vad's ususally got stuff before i do
[13:29] {GeoArb} i tried briefing trader once and compared to briefing platinum
[13:29] {GeoArb} trader is a few mins faster... i thought that wasnt right
[13:29] {cosmo} platinum plans arnt what they used to be
[13:30] {GeoArb} heh
[13:30] {GeoArb} still halted
[13:32] {Threei} my guess is, there was so little reason to halt it in a forst place, they just forgot to unhalt it now
[13:32] {GeoArb} lol
[13:36] {GeoArb} what?????? chaeron did you know this?

[15:13] {Threei} all I can do on this kind is to give a general idea of a play
[15:14] {magoo} yup
[15:15] {Threei} the way WB trades makes you think it's being perceived as next WM
[15:15] {Threei} peter... did I spell that one right?

[08:59] {cosmo} TMTA pre mkt high = 17 fwiw
[08:59] {fernp} Good morning all
[09:00] {Threei} fern :)
[09:00] {Onix} Good morning pilgrims

[09:01] {cosmo} oh
[09:01] {Threei} signed two agreements with Intel
[09:01] {Threei} probable suitor I'd think
[09:02] {magoo} onix:)
[09:02] {cosmo} sell to their customer....makes sense
[09:05] {Threei} (FR) FRENCH ECONOMY MIN LAGARDE: ALL EU COUNTRIES WILL BE AFFECTED BY THE US FINANCIAL CRISIS
[09:06] {Threei} I have one question to both pres candidates: who the hell would want this job NOW?
[09:06] {cosmo} mel gibson?
[09:09] {dino} gm all
[09:10] {Threei} dino :)
[09:11] {magoo} vad, does this russian ban mean that homer, bart and family cannot travel to russia?
[09:11] {Threei} I guess
[09:12] {magoo} heres the scenario....everyone expects BIG ramp up if releif is approved...is that too obvios...OR, is it self fullfilling?
[09:13] {magoo} package approved and mkt goes down hatrd would hurt the most
[09:13] {magoo} but, mkt down already as in oversold
[09:13] {Threei} hmmm... where were you two days ago?
[09:13] {magoo} huh?
[09:13] {dino} last thursday and friday big ramp, +700 give or take, give all back this week so far. it is thursday again. watch dji 11483-10,400, new range
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} let me describe how I see the current situation in the market and my idea of what is coming
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} I believe the market is working the process of bottoming these days. Bottom, however, is a process rather than event.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} In last week's explosion market kind of showed its hand - made it too obvious that rescue plan is what it wants to put the bottom in and reverse.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} Things can't be that obvious and easy - market is always trying to go with as few people on board as possible.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} When I ask myself "if I were a market, what would I do to fool those who decided they figured me out?", my scenario comes out as following:
[09:14] {dino} sell the rips
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 1. While the rescue plan is being discussed, retreat and plant as much doubt as possible
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 2. When the plan is adopted, spike briefly luring "reflexive players" in
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 3. Drop sharply, possible making new low, shake out hopefuls as violently and rudely as possible
[09:14] {Threei} [08:36] {Threei} 4. Rally from there as fast as posssible, leaving new believers minimal chance for entry and make them chase.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:36] {Threei} 5. Now that credit crisis ceased to be THE worry, start looking for new worries or recycling old ones (USD, oil etc), but do it in a context of new bull market.
[09:14] {Threei} and guess what... you were right there:
[09:14] {Threei} [08:40] {magoo} interesting vad

[09:09] {dino} gm all
[09:10] {Threei} dino :)
[09:11] {magoo} vad, does this russian ban mean that homer, bart and family cannot travel to russia?
[09:11] {Threei} I guess
[09:12] {magoo} heres the scenario....everyone expects BIG ramp up if releif is approved...is that too obvios...OR, is it self fullfilling?
[09:13] {magoo} package approved and mkt goes down hatrd would hurt the most
[09:13] {magoo} but, mkt down already as in oversold
[09:13] {Threei} hmmm... where were you two days ago?
[09:13] {magoo} huh?
[09:13] {dino} last thursday and friday big ramp, +700 give or take, give all back this week so far. it is thursday again. watch dji 11483-10,400, new range
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} let me describe how I see the current situation in the market and my idea of what is coming
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} I believe the market is working the process of bottoming these days. Bottom, however, is a process rather than event.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:34] {Threei} In last week's explosion market kind of showed its hand - made it too obvious that rescue plan is what it wants to put the bottom in and reverse.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} Things can't be that obvious and easy - market is always trying to go with as few people on board as possible.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} When I ask myself "if I were a market, what would I do to fool those who decided they figured me out?", my scenario comes out as following:
[09:14] {dino} sell the rips
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 1. While the rescue plan is being discussed, retreat and plant as much doubt as possible
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 2. When the plan is adopted, spike briefly luring "reflexive players" in
[09:14] {Threei} [08:35] {Threei} 3. Drop sharply, possible making new low, shake out hopefuls as violently and rudely as possible
[09:14] {Threei} [08:36] {Threei} 4. Rally from there as fast as posssible, leaving new believers minimal chance for entry and make them chase.
[09:14] {Threei} [08:36] {Threei} 5. Now that credit crisis ceased to be THE worry, start looking for new worries or recycling old ones (USD, oil etc), but do it in a context of new bull market.
[09:14] {Threei} and guess what... you were right there:
[09:14] {Threei} [08:40] {magoo} interesting vad
[09:15] {Threei} early onset of Alzheimer? :)
[09:15] {magoo} holy crap..after "huh" went for cup-o-joe and whammo
[09:15] {hawkfan4} lol
[09:17] {magoo} well, lets try to det more specific...approval ramp last more than one day?
[09:19] {dptl} good morning all
[09:19] {Threei} dp :)
[09:20] {Threei} as it stands now, I doubt it magoo
[09:20] {dino} thursday and fri, fri close 100 off peak, down big mon, tues......and there you have it
[09:20] {Threei} a lot depends on what happens between now and bailout being adopted
[09:20] {dino} thursday friday ramp big 600 pts combined
[09:21] {dino} watch 11483 for index shorts, imo
[09:21] {esemde} Thats an interesting paper Vad...The Telegraph...is it a rag or legit?
